Multi-almost periodicity and invariant basins of general neural networks under almost periodic stimuli
In this paper, we investigate convergence dynamics of almost periodic
encoded patterns of general neural networks (GNNs) subjected to external almost
periodic stimuli, including almost periodic delays. Invariant regions are
established for the existence of almost periodic encoded patterns under
two classes of activation functions. By employing the property of
-cone and inequality technique, attracting basins are estimated
and some criteria are derived for the networks to converge exponentially toward
almost periodic encoded patterns. The obtained results are new, they
extend and generalize the corresponding results existing in previous
literature.Comment: 28 pages, 4 figure
Dynamical Behavior of Nonautonomous Stochastic Reaction-Diffusion Neural Network Models
This brief investigates nonautonomous stochastic reaction-diffusion neural-network models with S-type distributed delays. First, the existence and uniqueness of mild solution are studied under the Lipschitz condition without the linear growth condition. Due to the existence of a nonautonomous reaction-diffusion term and the infinite dimensional Wiener process, the criteria for the well-posedness of the models are established based on the evolution system theory. Then, the S-type distributed delay, which is an infinite delay, is handled by the truncation method, and sufficient conditions for the global exponential stability are obtained by constructing a simple Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional candidate. Finally, neural-network examples and an illustrative example are given to show the applications of the obtained results.</p
Nonlinear dynamics of full-range CNNs with time-varying delays and variable coefficients
In the article, the dynamical behaviours of the full-range cellular neural networks (FRCNNs) with variable coefficients and time-varying delays are considered. Firstly, the improved model of the FRCNNs is proposed, and the existence and uniqueness of the solution are studied by means of differential inclusions and set-valued analysis. Secondly, by using the Hardy inequality, the matrix analysis, and the Lyapunov functional method, we get some criteria for achieving the globally exponential stability (GES). Finally, some examples are provided to verify the correctness of the theoretical results
Advanced Nonlinear Dynamics of Population Biology and Epidemiology
abstract: Modern biology and epidemiology have become more and more driven by the need of mathematical models and theory to elucidate general phenomena arising from the complexity of interactions on the numerous spatial, temporal, and hierarchical scales at which biological systems operate and diseases spread. Epidemic modeling and study of disease spread such as gonorrhea, HIV/AIDS, BSE, foot and mouth disease, measles, and rubella have had an impact on public health policy around the world which includes the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Canada, and the United States. A wide variety of modeling approaches are involved in building up suitable models. Ordinary differential equation models, partial differential equation models, delay differential equation models, stochastic differential equation models, difference equation models, and nonautonomous models are examples of modeling approaches that are useful and capable of providing applicable strategies for the coexistence and conservation of endangered species, to prevent the overexploitation of natural resources, to control disease’s outbreak, and to make optimal dosing polices for the drug administration, and so forth.View the article as published at https://www.hindawi.com/journals/aaa/2014/214514
Existence and stability of a periodic solution of a general difference equation with applications to neural networks with a delay in the leakage terms
In this paper, a new global exponential stability criterion is obtained for a
general multidimensional delay difference equation using induction arguments.
In the cases that the difference equation is periodic, we prove the existence
of a periodic solution by constructing a type of Poincar\'e map. The results
are used to obtain stability criteria for a general discrete-time neural
network model with a delay in the leakage terms. As particular cases, we obtain
new stability criteria for neural network models recently studied in the
literature, in particular for low-order and high-order Hopfield and
Bidirectional Associative Memory(BAM).Comment: 20 pages, 3 figure
